Saylor unveils five-tier plan to build deposits, yield products and stocks on bitcoin
Michael Saylor, chairman of Strategy, has proposed a five-tier financial structure that uses bitcoin as the base asset and builds layers of credit, fiat-linked digital money, yield products and equities on top. He said the design does not change the bitcoin protocol and instead creates products tailored to different investor needs. Saylor also cited an example return of 6 to 8 percent annually and criticised existing stablecoins for not returning enough reserve-asset yield to holders.
